Who would like to read (or in one case reread) my view on the holocaust?! Taken from a private message that I wrote in March 2022. Now that we’re seeing how readily the lies are being spread by Israelis about what’s happening in Gaza - “they beheaded 40 babies”, “they cooked a baby in an oven” etc., all total nonsense - this is an event that really needs to be called into question as well, because of how much currency it still holds and how it’s used to justify the actions of people in power today.

You read every survivor account, why are there so many survivor accounts!? How does one survive being in a concentration camp where everyone around them is being gassed and murdered? Where is there to hide? I've never heard of so many survivors of a genocide in my life, and they're so voluble too!
In a nutshell, I don't believe the objective was to kill the people there. I believe the concentration camps were temporary holding camps for Jews to go to before being deported. Madagascar was their original destination although that then fell through. I think the gas chambers are wartime fiction and that the majority of people who died did so from starvation. Due to the war, supplies got more scarce and weren't being brought to the people in the concentration camps. Which isn't to say I don't believe any of the people were outright murdered, I remember reading about a massacre of Jews in Lithuania in 1941 for example. There were pockets of violence but the vast majority of deaths occurred due to the famine-like conditions. There's nothing to be gained from saying people died from mass starvation because it's not exactly *intentional*. The people obviously were receiving supplies up to a point because there were so many survivors, but as the 'allies' started to close in and German forces were in retreat the supplies got cut off.
Does that not make more sense than '6 million people got gassed and murdered and buried while a war raged around them'?
Retrospectively it became a justification for war: "yes, tens of millions of people died in this war which could have been avoided, but look at what they were doing to the Jews in the camps". Jews ran with it, they used it as leverage and got Israel out of it, and sorry to say I believe a lot of those survivor accounts contain false memories. It's like something that starts with one person: "I was there, and I saw people being gassed", then the next person who hears it says "yes, I saw that too!", and then slowly but surely you have thousands of survivors who claim to have seen this thing happening and are convinced that they did.
I know for some reason you like Jordan Peterson: he has spoken at length about false memory in relation to hysteria around satanic rings during the 1980s, but he never once mentions false memory concerning the holocaust. Even if he wanted to he couldn't (he was asked about Jewish influence during one of his public appearances a few years ago and after considering it for a few moments he simply stated: "I can't do it"). Is there a more taboo subject in western discourse? It's taboo by design. There's nothing more controversial than asking questions about a nearly 80 year old event, do you not find that strange?
As for how many people truly died: leaving aside everything I just said, we can say for certain that it's not 6 million anyway. That was only ever an estimate but then became a number that can't be questioned or tampered with. Even if it was close, it's not going to be precisely 6 million. So what is it: 5,700,298? 6,001,501? Etc. We can't ask! For the record I don't believe it's anywhere close to that number. I don't agree either that they were treated terribly for centuries. At what point do you state: "all right, we've been run out of nearly every country and region that we've ever resided in, maybe some of the problem lies with our own behaviour"? Jews from Lithuania moved here in the early 1900s to the city in Ireland where I was born, everything was okay for a while but they were practicing usury and before long they were hounded out of the city. It's a recurring theme. But it's a good ruse they've got going: to be probably the most powerful ethnic group on the planet whilst simultaneously claiming to be the most victimised.
